  1. Nice job on this. I love the engine swap. Very interesting way to do the front tire clearance. Not sure what I think about it. It isn't too practical. Still, it turned out very nice. One to be proud of. Later-
  2. It's really hard to tell the difference here because they are next door to each other. I usually go to check out the other genres too. I don't think I've ever bought a model from either store. Later-
  3. I'm interested to see how you do this. Post lots of pictures please. Later-
  4. Looking good so far. Any updates? Later-
  5. Beautiful work! That paint is gorgeous. Can't wait to see it all come together. Later-
  6. I've got one of those Sand Shark kits that I wanted to do a similar thing with. Now I know what direction to go in. Looks great. Later-
  7. I remember when you weren't anybody if you didn't have a Roger DeCoster bicycle. Guess that's why I was a nobody in school. But man, did I try to convince my parents to buy me one. Oh well, somehow I lived without one....My childhood was sooo rough (he says sarcastically). Nice kit, BTW. Later-
  8. We Care??!!?? I'd love to read what the rest of that envelope says. Somehow I have my doubts. Later-
  9. Thanks for the tutorial. It will come in handy when I finally get to painting this spring on my 41. You make it look easy. I'm sure I'll have to keep mine simple. Later-
  10. Nice work so far. I've been following this and I like where you have taken it. I really like your choice of wheels for it. They have the old time racer look to them. For the mesh on the front brake scoops they make metal mesh reusable coffee filters that you could cut up. Later-
  11. Definitely use wood. Then you can stain and age it as needed. Nothing like using the real thing. Later-
  12. Looking good. That is such a great color for that car. I just picked up a 69 Corvette kit recently for $5.00. I may need to dig out some of my old Boyd's paint and see if I can still build a kit OOB. Nice work. Later-
  13. Nice looking flush mounted skirts. The build is coming along. Keep posting the photos. Later-
  14. Thanks. I'll have to look for that one, or the other two. For some reason I always liked the detail of the red stripe under the grille. Later-
  15. I've been using FireFox for a couple of years. I'm obviously not the only one since reading the app ratings. I found a little way around it for now but it is a pain. If I go directly to PB.com I can upload one photo at a time but have to go in and out of each site each time. Guess I'll ask my daughter what she uses and give up on PB for now. Later-
  16. Man, that is looking fantastic. Your detail work is top notch. BTW- got any photos of the box top. I'm interested in what kit this is. Later-
  17. I can't even find Photobucket in the apps store anymore. All I can find is PB mobile and Snapbucket. Standard Photobucket isn't even on the list. Later-
  18. Reading through the ratings on ON it would seem we are not the only ones w/ issues. Now I have to find a new site to be able to load photos from. Anyone use anything else that they could give some advice? I have some kit bodies that I would like to trade but can't without uploading photos. Later-
  19. What has Photobucket done to their site now? I can't upload photos to it from my phone anymore. It comes up with the screen to click on the checkmark to upload photos but I can't seem to click on it. I sure wish sites wouldn't put out updates that don't seem to work. Is anyone else having problems or is it just me? How have you gotten it to work? What was wrong with the way it was? Why do I sound so much like my FATHER right now? Later-
  20. It's still in an unfinished state. Kinda lost steam on it. I should get back on it soon. It was a fun one. I don't have a lot left to do on it, comparatively speaking. Later-
  21. I'd love to see a tutorial on the paintwork since I am wanting to do a similar style on my 41 Chevy pickup and will need all the help I can get. Later-
  22. Spray a heavy coat of Easy Off oven cleaner (not the fume free type) on the wheels and seal them in a Ziploc bag for an hour or two. After that, scrub them with an old tooth brush in dish soap and warm water. It should come off. If not, try it again. Be sure to wear rubber gloves. Later-
  23. That is the plan I have for my 41 Chevy pickup lowrider. I want to use the same pallet of silver and blues with a bit of light copper/gold. Beautiful work and an inspiration to me. Thank you. Later-
  24. Like my year went. Got a lot worked on....... Later-
  25. Nice looking OOB build. Clean looking. What color and brand of red is the interior? Later-
